Banded May 4th!!!!!!

Hey Banditos~

I had my surgery yesterday and also a hernia repair, I'm having a little discomfort today but that is to be expected. I'm having to drink something every hour which is hard to do and suppose to get in around 60 grams of Protein but I have a hard time with Protein Drinks, I'm going to have some strained Soup with added protein later. I haven't been hungry and so far head hunger hasn't set in.

Congratulations!! Aren't you glad that part is over. I'm 2 wks out tomorrow and it gets better every day. It's really hard for me to drink so much too. I do the best that I can. Keep a bottle of Protein Drink next to me all day. People on this website have said over and over that Protein is the key to a good recovery, so I'm trying really hard!

Thanks for the congrats! Your right protein is the key and it also helps to keep your hair from falling out.

Congratulations, Deb! Have you tried unjury chicken Soup? It is 90 calories, 0 fat, 0 carbs, and 21 g. Protein. It is actually not made with chicken, btw, in case you are vegetarian, but it tastes good! It has helped me get Protein in when I can't do another shake. You can get it on their website, Unjury.com.

Good luck!

Hey Nay- Glad to hear you are doing great. I think so far all the may 4th banditios had hernia repair. Pretty crazy. Nice that they can fix it while in there! Also Unjury's unflavored is awesome!!!!! You can put it in anything without changing the flavor and you seriously cannot even tell it's there. I've put mine in pudding, chocolate milk, chicken broth mashed potatoes and more. That's what's so awesome about it. You can't put the chicken Soup in pudding or the chocolate in your chicken broth but the unflavored can go into ANYTHING! Again AWESOME STUFF!!

I have some but haven't tried it yet I ordered the trial packs. I've drank some Atkins advantage and had some cheddar/broccoli soup(strained) and I've been sipping non protein fluids. I really don't want anything but I try to get alittle down. Maybe tomorrow I'll be able to hold more. Wow I never thought I'd say that!LOL

Yea I order the trials and was excited about the unflavored I think I make some Jello with it and maybe add it to something I like to drink.

I know your excited right now about your big day tomorrow. Good Luck

For some reason this totally made me laugh. :thumbup:

Glad to hear you're feeling okay, Naynay. I'm also having a hernia repair, so it's especially nice to hear from you guys who had both at the same time. Everyone seems to be having a fairly easy time, which is fabulous!

Thanks for the report on the Unjury. I will order the unflavored before my surgery. I ordered some of the other flavors and they were great. I think the unflavored will be great to add to other foods to up the protein.I also ordered some lean dessert (protein supplement) from vitacost. I ordered the fresh cinnamon roll and vanilla. It is delic. I would drink it even if I didn't need the Protein.< /p>
